I am interested in copying my filesystem from a Rodime 100Mb SCSI drive
to a macIIci's 200Mb internal Cobra. I am not sure if I am doing this
correctly but I tried using "dd" and had ok results. The only problem is
that the 60Mb that I partitioned for / is not all available, which leads
me to believe that I should have used "dump" or sothing like that.

I originaly used "silver-lining" to partition the 200Mb drive with the
six A/UX partitions and then used "dd". Was I just lucking that dd copyed
the image into the right place on the dest. drive? Basically I would just
like to move it from the 100Mb Rodime to the MacIIci's internal 200 and
be able to use the free space left over in the 200Mb drive...

I would greatly appreciate any help. :-)
